Questing about changing drive letters, and two hard drives with win2k installs

[duragezic]

I had win2k on c:, and a data partition as d:. I put in a new 60gb hard drive has primary master (old hard drive as primary slave), then partitioned, and installed windows 2000 to the new hard drive. Except it's installed as G:. I can switch between because the boot loader automatically comes up.

I want the NEW hard drive to be c:, then the other win2k to be g:, just temporarily, then I'll combine it with d:.

So, is that possible? I have PM 6.0, which has a change drive letter feature, but it gives me an error when I try to make c: to h:.

Please read the FAQ: How do I change drive letters?

Well I couldn't change the boot drive letters, and that's what I need to do. So it looks like I'd have to format c: (current win2k install I'm using), merge it with d: as data partition, then format g:, and hope it takes the letter c:?

Yes you can. Did you read the second half of the FAQ?

But it says in there you only want to change boot drive letters to make it go back to the initial installation. And what I want to be G:, was originally installed as c:, and what I want to be c: (new hard drive, new win2k install), was originally installed as g:. So right now they match initial installation, and by changing it, it seems like it would mess things up with a lot of things pointing to the wrong drive letter.
